The City of Hoboken has invited me back to judge the fine contestants who come to Hoboken annually to vie for the title of winner of the Sinatra Idol Contest. This is a great photo from the 2012 contest – 16 fabulous contestants standing on the Hoboken waterfront with the background of the greatest city in the world – “New York, New York” – yes, Frank inspired us all!
With the great tenor Daniel Rodriguez – you remember Daniel – our beloved singing NYC Policeman who rose to fame through the terrible dark days of 9/11 This is one of my favorite shots – Daniel and I in a very dramatic moment in the Opera of the Hamptons production of “Cavalleria Rusticana”. I loved singing the role of Santuzza – the jilted Sicilian girl madly in love with Turiddu. Thank you to Barbara Giancola for her dedication in keeping the great operas in front of the Hamptons public.
